100% CPU Usage

I just bought a 60D for my home internet (250mbps). However when I have Application control, antivirus or web filtering enabled it maxes out the CPU to 100% and throttles the speed to 40mbps. I have logging completely off and I'm running 5.4 however it does the same with 5.2.5. 

 

As soon as I disable the UTM features it comes back. I did a diag sys top and it shows the IPS service as using almost all of the CPU. Any ideas?

Hello J Cortes, The IPS is a powerful tool to be configured. One of the biggest fault is to apply for all traffic, not specifying the application (http, https, ftp, smtp, etc). Follow some commands to debug IPS sensor.

 

FGT # diag test application ipsmonitor

IPS Engine Test Usage:   

1: Display IPS engine information   

2: Toggle IPS engine enable/disable status   

3: Display restart log   

4: Clear restart log   

5: Toggle bypass status   

6: Submit attack characteristics now  

10: IPS queue length  

11: Clear IPS queue length  

12: IPS L7 socket statistics  

13: IPS session list  

14: IPS NTurbo statistics  

15: IPSA statistics  

97: Start all IPS engines  

98: Stop all IPS engines  

99: Restart all IPS engines and monitor

 

If you need stop the IPS process use the option 98.
